The Delhi High Court has upheld a trial court order discharging an accused of charges under the POCSO Act on the basis of the alleged victim’s Aadhaar card, which indicated that she had crossed the age of majority.
The Gauhati High Court recently set aside the conviction of an accused under Section 6 of POCSO Act and Section 363 of IPC on the ground that the prosecution failed to prove the age of victim to be.
